I am well along on my first bacon thanks to all the help from the forum. I used Pops brine for 14 days then developed a good pellicle in the refrigerator for 1 1/2 days. I cold smoked for 12 hours yesterday with the temperature in the smoker between 55 and 72. I put it back in the refrigerator over night. The color was not as nice as I wanted. I am thinking about giving one to two more 6 hour smokes. Since our temperatures are not going over 60 is it okay to leave the bacon hanging in the smoker and just keep adding smoke with my AMTS until I see the color I want? That way I don't have to be up late messing with it. The smoke is very nice TBS so I think that this should work.
Any input form the pros would be much appreciated.
Thank you
